Because MMA has only been around for 30 years. Also have you seen Thailand? Anything those little people can do, the Chinese can do. The fact is MMA isn't real life, its all about wrestling and BBJ, striking is less important than in real life. In China I doubt wrestling and BBJ are big deals...

I view the UK/US/Canada/New Zealand/Australia as the English civilization, and they are now involved in a 5th generation or unrestricted war against China. Just wanted to make a threat to discuss this as the war continues over the coming years. The Chinese have 1.5 billion people, the English...

I have a question, why doesn't anyone build a specialist air-defence fighter? The F-16 was meant to be that, but got bastardized and turned into a multi-role thing. The same happened to the Typhoon, which was meant to be the best air defence fighter in the world, got pogged into grand-attack...

I am British and for the British its a god send, we have now the most capable carrier borne aircraft in the world capable of EW and AAW, its a bit crap as sea-strike and grand-attack. However in the future any nation with a carrier without the F-35 will be at a huge disadvantage. In terms of...

Literally allied with the Chinese ruling class to overthrown election of Trump, them says China is bullying other nation, while doing literally nothing to help those change. Its all nonsense and political theater. I have commented and over over again on this forum about what the Chinese are...

Well done. Nice work.

I had an idea to huge 1 tone sponges in the hills of Britain, to limit the effects of flooding down stream. Told the environment agency, they didn't want to know.

Apparently Egypt just got a navy to attack a dam in Ethiopia. Which is amusing. Saudi is a desert, why do they need a massive army and air force? Other than for internal control? The navy should have always been the point of emphasis for the Saudi's, given their dependence of oil exports by...

Personally I think this perception is wrong. That the major threat from Iran is the militia in Iraq, Syria, Yemen. The major threat is from Iranians blockading and mining the gulf, at which point the Saudi's can't export oil and they go bankrupt. Allowing the Iranians to buy of Shia's in Saudi...

Thanks. That does explain it. Basically jobs for the Royals to keep them busy, rather than overthrowing the current king.

Why is the Saudi navy built so ridiculously? I mean they have hundreds of billions in capital they could spend, they could easily have the most powerful navy in the Gulf and Red sea, why don't they? I mean 3 minesweepers when they know the main weapon of the Iranians will be to mine the...

It was hilarious when the utter retard Lord West in the UK, former first sea lord and lost his ships in the Falklands said the British could defeat the Russians in the Baltic sea. This is why Britain has fallen so much, idiots like this man thinking we could take on the Russians in the Baltic...

If the US had 100 OHP class ships they wouldn't have the strategic numbers issues they are having now. Even the new class of frigate and LCS cost over 700 million dollars. For no more or even a less powerful ships. The need for an escort frigate has always been in place of the US navy, so why...

This may just be the most loving, beautiful statement ever made on this forum.

It also calls into question the military philosophy of clausewitz (war being the continuation of politics by other means). The newer Chinese unrestricted warfare concept is much more correct, where everything is war, just another aspect of the many faces of the war God. Also it is of course...

I have been planning a Canadian navy for myself, just on an excel doc. In my view Canada need all three types of submarines for operating in its different environments. So for the Arctic you need nuclear powered submarines (4 of them), then you need SSK's for operating in the Maritime...

The winner, as always is 4th generation warfare. Loser is the neo-cons and 2nd generation warfare.

Just on my evening walk thinking about what's happened in Afghanistan over the past week and indeed past 40 years. For me it shows yet another conclusive case that 2nd generation warfare can't withstand 4th generation warfare. And contrary to the statements from the white house and Neo-cons in...

Its easy to pacify Afghanistan, just buy some dudes off. China will just buy some dudes off and leave them to do what they want. Which is in the end what the British did in the great game with Russia. Also no China couldn't militarily pacify Afghanistan, it would fall to 4th generation...

I am not an Army person, I don't understand it. They have things which are most than good enough, in huge numbers. How much better can they make a rifle? Its not like there is new technology or bullets. Its just the same thing, so long as the gun is reliable. Same thing with the Light-weigh guns...
